[Q] Possible to connect external speaker on XDAII for SMS alert - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

I want to give my O2 XDAII as second live.
I do have a GPS tracking system in my car that sends an SMS when I am in a preferred area (my compound).
I do want people at home hear the SMS alert via an external (wired) speaker.
Is this possible and is this loud enough (I can load a loud SMS alert ring tone).

Ringing to the headset only

Hi folks,
Is there a way or setting that will make the XDA to deliver the ringing only to the headset ?
I found that all types of sounds (Battary, SMS, reminders, .. etc) are delivered to the headset except the ringing sound. This would be great during meetings instead of vibrating.
Thanks ...

[Q] sms sound notification when bluetooth earphone is active

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to have a sound notification when a SMS arrives, also when I have my bluetooth earpiece active. I have the habbit of not holding my phone in my hand when talking, I most of the time use my BT earpiece.
Compared to my iMate Jasjar / aka HTC Universal, I had my phone lying on my desk, BT active, and earpiece on. So when I call came in, the phone ringed, and I picked up by pressing the button on my BT earpiece. When a message came in, the phone made a sound notification, both from the phone, and through my BT earpiece.
On my HD2 the phone rings as usual. But I don't hear a sound notification from the phone, I only hear it when I have my BT earpiece in my ear. But this way I need to have it in my ear all day (.
Is there a way to get sound notification even when BT earpiece is active and turned on?

[Q] Originar Car Holder - Audio cut after SMS

Dear all,
I use the original car holder: it carries music to my car stereo, but when I receive an sms, music volume is cut, it reads sender's information, then no more music.
Media volume is 100% but nothin is heard until reboot.
Any ideas?
Tks!

[Q] no sound on incoming bluetooth call

Car stereo has bluetooth. I finally hooked up a microphone so it's usable in the car for making calls. When I place a call everything works fine, but when I receive a call I can't hear the caller, although they can hear me fine.
Anyone else experience this and find a fix?
Running the latest official AT&T release with no modifications.
Yes, I keep finding this myself and I have discovered the "problem" and solution
Basically, any incoming calls default to handset speaker and you have to manually tap "bluetooth" to transfer the call to the headset/handsfree. When making outgoing calls, it defaults to Bluetooth from the offset so no problem!
What I do not know, however, is how to force it to default to Bluetooth on incoming call...
I have not seen that issue and I use BT in my car a lot. BB351
Something else that could be the case: Are you listening to music through A2DP bluetooth at the time that the call comes in? It's possible that the transition from A2DP to headset protocol is what is "blocking" the call from going straight to the handsfree?
chaosdefinesorder is correct, you could have a misbehaving music app (or any other app with audio over bluetooth, such as navigation).
I know that PowerAmp and Playerpro both work well with bluetooth with the music stopping when a call comes in.
I was listening to FM radio at the time. When the call ends it always go back to whatever I was listening to.
So next time I should tap the phone button on the radio instead of sliding the button on the phone, apparently.

This was it. I have to answer the head unit, not the phone.
Operator error.

Bluetooth AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!

Right does anyone know of any modifications I can make to a file that allows notification, email, messaging sounds go through a handsfree headset, currently only phone ring tone does this through profiles.
